That is incorrect. More work is done to bring a game to a PC -- however, given the size of the PC market, I can't imagine an Xbox game not being worth putting in the effort. If you have a capable enough gaming machine, the only reasons I can think of getting an Xbox is the inconsistent implementation of HDR on PC games, to get access to a larger library in GamePass and to take advantage of Xbox backwards compatibility.

I understand your point better now. I apologize if my reaction was stronger than it should have been.

General Gaming ACG Game Reviews And Meta Critic
AbsolutSurgen replied to SimpleG's topic in The Spawn Point
That was a rant. -
We need the reviews! Mine: Valentina: Valentina is a "Mexican-style" hot sauce that is fantastic for Tex-Mex foods. It has a very neutral flavour for foods, and does not have a strong distinctive flavour that a Jalapeno or Habanero pepper sauce might have. My typical usage for this sauce is on Tacos -- because it adds what I would consider a stereotypical "Mexican" flavour, without adding very much in the way of heat. Flavour -- 8/10 Heat - 2/10 Overall -- 7/10 "It may not bring the heat, but for Tacos, it is probably just what you are looking for."

1) Wo gave you the moral judgement to determine what a valid emotional reaction to consuming media is? Why do you think people need to apologize if their view is different than yours? 2) Jeff Canatta is not and never has been a games journalist. 3) He hasn't been callous. 4) There is no moral onus on Jeff, or anybody else to try and ensure that no one is "offended" by anything he says. Very little can be said of any import, that SOMEONE won't find "offensive". [In the current twitter lexicon, it appears to be anything than doesn't 100% conform to someone's preferences/beliefs.] People don't need to apologize for saying things that are kludgy, amateurish and juvenile.

My point was that the ships in the movies do not follow the laws of physics. I’m not sure the movies are all that consistent on the exact “physics” and capabilities that each ship has. So, the designers, IMHO, have some creative license in how they balance the gameplay between the two factions. I suspect this will be done in an asymmetric way. Perhaps they will even go so far as assigning points to each ship and giving each squadron a max points per round.

I am sure they will "balance" the ships in some way. I am expecting this game to be somewhat "class-based" -- so it will be interesting to see which advantages/disadvantages they give to each ship. For the record -- IMHO, Star Wars space combat is not "realistic" so I find it really hard to call any game based on it a "sim".

Jeff compared his reaction to consuming two pieces of media that were both made for profit. That is not insensitive, nor does it need to be apologized for. His comments did not promote hate. His comments did not demean any racial/ethnic group, promote systemic discrimination or minimize an historical event. If he did one of those things, he probably should. But, he didn't.
